Bayern Munich have reportedly been in contact with Sahr Senesie over the possibility of signing Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger.
Christian Falk is reporting that the German Champions contacted Senesie, who is Rudiger’s agent and brother, because they are “interested” in the services of the 28-year-old.
However, he is also reporting that the tendency from Rudiger’s camp is for him to sign a new deal at Stamford Bridge, which will certainly be music to the ears of Blues fans.
See Falk’s report below…

Rudiger, who has appeared in all of Chelsea’s games so far this season bar the Carabao Cup, has been a key component for the Chelsea machine since the appointment of Thomas Tuchel.
This allowed the club to lift Champions League. They also managed to concede only twice in the entirety the competition’s knockout stages.
Chelsea have also been rock-solid in their 3-4-3-35-2-3-3 system this season, conceding only one goal all season. It is remarkable that Liverpool scored a Mohamed Salah goal to draw 1-1 at Anfield.

Bayern boss Julian Nagelsmann has a reputation for favoring a back trio at his previous teams. It was used with great success at RB Leipzig, Hoffenheim and RB Leipzig.
The emergence of Rudiger as an undroppable defender in the right centre back position has likely piqued Bayern’s interest, with Nagelsmann likely keen to employ a similar formation with Die Roten.
The young German tactician will be seeking to retain the Bundesliga and get back to winning ways in the Champions League with an astronomically strong squad that has already bolstered its ranks with the signings of Dayot Upamecano and Marcel Sabitzer.
Rudiger’s new contract at Chelsea is imminent so any offer to him would need to be strong.
